The Alchemist’s Path
I’m Pia Tuulia Cäbble—an artist, storyteller, and cultural alchemist of African and Scandinavian descent.
My work is a tapestry of painting, sculpture, performance, and ritual that honors ancestral memory, queerness, and the transformative power of myth.
At the heart of my practice is Conversations with the Dead—a living archive exploring belonging, grief, and spiritual legacy across the Afrodiaspora. Braided hair weaves through my work as a sacred motif—binding generations, cosmologies, and the visible with the unseen.
Through vibrant color, layered texture, and symbolic storytelling, I create portals into other worlds—spaces of healing, wonder, and becoming.
